How We Appear Is How We Are Perceived
I really like that line! HOW we are perceived. My 2017 new year’s resolution was to put my best face forward. Over the last 6 months I have made an effort to put on my face and do my hair. I work in a male-dominated field and deal mostly with crooks and tweakers so it’s hard to get excited about wearing makeup or be perceived as a strong, vibrant, intelligent woman. In November, I went to a seminar and in one of the sessions, there was an engineer turned motivational speaker and she was talking about how we appear is how we are perceived. She’s right, if I constantly wear jeans and t-shirts and never wear makeup or make an effort to do my hair then I feel ho-hum, I give off a ho-hum vibe and are easily overlooked and underestimated. Still skeptical? I was too, she gave me three pieces of advice and for 6 months I have been following them religiously with pretty cool results. #1 If you want people to look and listen to what you are saying, make your eyes and lips POP! #2 Wear clothes that fit you, lost weight? Get out of your fat…
